The Albion Men's Traverse Long Sleeve Jersey is designed for comfort and versatility across changing conditions and long days on the bike. A lightly brushed main fabric provides warmth when temperatures drop, while strategically positioned grid fleece mesh panels under the arms help regulate temperature as effort levels rise.

Warm enough for training through the colder months yet adaptable enough for changeable-weather trips, the jersey works equally well on its own or as part of a wider layering system. Expanded rear storage adds extra carrying capacity for longer rides, making it a practical choice when conditions demand additional layers or equipment.

Performance & construction
The lightly brushed main fabric provides insulation without turning the jersey into a dedicated winter layer. Grid fleece mesh panels beneath the arms improve ventilation in areas where heat builds quickly, helping the jersey adapt as riding intensity and temperature change.

This balance of warmth and breathability makes it a versatile standalone jersey in cool conditions or an effective mid layer when paired with additional weather protection.

Storage
Three conventional rear pockets provide familiar jersey storage, complemented by additional mesh side-entry cargo capacity for carrying spare layers, accessories or ride essentials.

The storage system is designed to work alongside Albion's ABR1 Bib Shorts for increased carrying capacity on longer rides.

Size & fit
Designed as part of Albion's All Road range. Choose your usual size for a balanced fit, size down for a closer fit or size up if you prefer additional room for layering.

Care & washing instructions
Follow the care label inside the garment. Wash technical garments gently and avoid fabric softener. Air dry naturally to help preserve the brushed fabric, mesh panels and overall performance.

Layer up!

Tough cookies keep on cycling in winter, also when temperatures drop to as low as below zero degrees. What to wear to keep you warm enough? Let's cut straight through to the answer: it's all about layering. With your core kept warm, you unlock the secret to riding comfortably in the harshest of weather. At Maats, we advise to adhere to ''The Three Layer Principle'', consisting of:

#1: The baselayer

This is the first and arguably most key component to keeping you warm. Various options of thermal fabrics allow you to make the right choice for the temperature you're defying that day. For instance, pick merino wool for its perfect temperature regulation capacities, or choose Polartec for state-of-the-art heat technology. Wear a snug fit to make sure the top layers won't look wrinkly.

#2: The longsleeve jersey

This middle piece may seem excessive, but let us tell you: it isn't. The longsleeve jersey is the ideal inbetween layer to add a level of temperature regulation, combined with the practical function of its pockets (as both layer #1 and #3 typically don't have these). Longsleeve jerseys come in variations from thin textiles to thermal fleece-lined fabrics. Choose what you feel aligns best with the outside temperature.

#3: The gilet or jacket

Lastly, wear a gilet or jacket over all of the above. A gilet keeps your core warm yet ventilates through your armpits, whereas a jacket's sleeves not only keep your body warmth, but also cover your arms to cold riding wind. The great thing about this third layer is that you can wear it (partly) unzipped to cool down, or get rid of it altogether during your ride. Lightweight gilets/jackets typically can be stowed easily into a back pocket of your jersey.

Now don't think this is it: treat yourself to a thermal long bib, and take care of your extremities by adding a beanie, a neck tube, gloves, thermal socks, overshoes and what not. At Maats, we have it all! ;)
